Starting Windows Sandbox.Īfter a short wait, I saw a Sandbox icon on my Windows desktop. Once my system was restarted, I logged back in to it, entered Sandbox in the Windows search bar, and then clicked the Windows Sandbox app icon when it appeared ( Figure 2).

Turning on Windows Sandbox in the Windows features dialog box. I was then prompted to restart my laptop. From this dialog, I selected the Windows Sandbox checkbox and then clicked OK ( Figure 1). Once I verified that my system met the requirements for Sandbox, and I installed the beta build of Windows, I brought up Control Panel, selected Programs and then Turn Windows Features On or Off. Sandbox is a feature of Windows 10, so I didn't need to download anything else - I only needed to enable the feature in Windows. Due to the length of this article on Windows Sandbox, I broke it up into two parts in the first part I explained how I installed a Windows 10 version that can run Sandbox, and in this part I focus on how I installed and used Sandbox.
